To be Fair

Read somewhere that to make the most out of gold rush, is to get to the site first and sell shovels. Over lunch with EB and TT, I learnt that our common friend WL is taking a few months off to put his life long dream of building a resort into reality. Even during his corporate days as an IT consultant, he has never put off his passion for writing and his desire to create unforgettable memories for others. The idea of a resort that will provide top quality service was mooted at the most insane period when we were struggling to put a humongous system in place. I thought he probably was overworked then and needed some fantasy to let off his pressure. Two years ago WL surprised all of us by quitting his glamourous consulting career to become a writer for the country's top selling business weekly. Today he is in Chicago talking to business partners about his resort. From IT consultants to a writer to a resort owner. I am inspired by the courage he has to pursue his dreams.
